The show BraveStarr is an animated series that aired from 1987 to 1989. It was produced by Filmation, the company that created several acclaimed animated shows such as He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, She-Ra: Princess of Power, and The Adventures of Batman.

The show also features a cast of memorable villains, each with their own unique personality and nefarious plans for New Texas.

Tex Hex is brilliantly portrayed by Alan Oppenheimer, who gives the character a sinister and menacing personality that makes him one of the most memorable villains in animated television.

The other cast members also deliver terrific performances, each bringing their own unique voice and personality to their respective characters. Ed Gilbert voices the wise old mentor Shaman, who provides guidance to BraveStarr whenever he needs it. Susan Blu voices J.B. McBride, a human marshal who works alongside BraveStarr to keep New Texas safe. Erika Scheimer and Lou Scheimer provide additional voice work for various characters throughout the show.

Throughout the series, BraveStarr and his allies battle against various threats to New Texas, including forces of nature, rogue outlaws, and even extraterrestrial invasions. Each episode is filled with action, adventure, and excitement, making BraveStarr one of the most entertaining and memorable animated shows of its time.

What sets BraveStarr apart from other animated shows of its era is its unique blend of western and science fiction themes, as well as its use of Native American culture and mythology.
